In all fairness, the line number accounting is also important for warnings and errors.

Your list would probably also be more useful if you dropped most of the compilation related functions: At least yylex, scan_const, and yyparse. Probably, worrying about regexp compilation isn't that useful either, so those functions could go, too. What are the runners up?

    Not 100% accurate. Some functions might be missing or corrupt because of my shoddy regexps used to create the data.

      The size of a function doesn't seem to me to be closely correlated with whether that function is a performance bottleneck.
